Chic & Cheap Kitchen Rugs

Normally when I go into people’s home I notice that their kitchen rug falls into 3 catagories.

1. Some sort of wine or grape motif:

2. Coffee motif:

3.Plump Chef motif:

I’m certain that at one point in our lives we’ve had one of the versions from above in our home, but I say we should kick those chubby chefs to the curb!

Now in most home decor magazines we normally don’t even see kitchen mats in photo shoots, but we must be practical. People enjoy having a little cushioning under their feet especially if their floors are wood or tile.

Here are a couple of stylish options that I found to fit the bill:

1. Lattice Kitchen Rug: It’s a nice neutral color, love the lattice pattern and this runner version (20” x 48”) is only $16.99

2. Acadia Maze: This pattern reminds me a lot of Java Java by China Seas. The 24” by 36” version is only $19.99

3. Geometric Rug: Love this pattern below it reminds me of Dash & Albert’s diamond pattern. This 21” x 34” version is on sale for $12. 49! I could also see this having a home by your bedside.

4.Chevron Rug: Ah what’s not to love about chevron. This 21” x 34” mat is only $12.49. I love it! I would even buy a couple and stitch them together to get a larger rug!

All of my picks are from Kohls! A store that I tend to forget about. So I’m happy I decided to take a peek there today!

So true! I'm not a fan of "themes". I didn't even have a theme for my children's rooms. Am I crazy or should your home flow from room to room? I wouldn't have a chunky monkey chef in my master bedroom or guest bath.

I do have the chef's theme in my kitchen! It makes me smile every time I see one of those cute chefs smiling down at me. I don't go over board but I do have a chef's rug. I'll have to do a post on my kitchen!

I am really happy to hear Kohl's has cute stuff like that - I've never been there! I am always struggling with finding a stylish rug for the kitchen and never love anything (except a leopard print runner which got moved to the laundry room and looks so good in there I can't take it out again). A stop at Kohl's is in my near future!! Thanks for the info!

I used to have a black background Persian (fake, of course)runner in my kitchen, but got so tired of vacuuming it, I finally rolled it up and put it in the garage sale pile. Now I just have the ceramic tile. Boring maybe - easy to clean - definitely :).

Chic and cheap is right! The chevron is my fav and I'll have to take a peek. By the way, love your designer series you do... it's fun to see how others in our field carry out their day. I'd love for you to check out my new blog venture at www.connellinteriors.blogspot.com!

I have to admit at first glance, I was getting scared of this post. Gotta love overweight chefs :) The rugs you picked were super cute! I tend to go through kitchen rugs quickly -- must be a messy cook -- so the price is definitely right for me. May have to trek down to Kohl's this weekend ...

Wow, who knew! Love the "china seas" one. I had a Kohl's credit from returning a baby gift, and I just handed it to the person in line behind me because there was nothing there I wanted. Now I wish I had it!

Kohl's as your source was a pleasant surprise. I've purchased several walkoff mats from Target (the most inobtrusive I could find) and put them together with duct tape on the back. It's held all winter, but would be easy to remove.
